Perhaps someone here can help.

My father passed away about a year ago. We weren't a family that had a lot of nice things (the luxuries my father would indulge in tended to be single malt scotches, not non-consumable objects). However, I remember my father having a really nice pen. When he passed away and my brother and I went through his apartment, the pen was nowhere to be found. It wasn't in his work place either. I was really hoping to find the pen.

Since then I find myself thinking more and more about it, looking in at pen shops and online. It's a touchstone I really wish I had.

I remember it being a Waterman and looking in the shops it seems that the Expert pen in smart blue is a match (did they have that model in the 80s?). I don't really have the money to put towards buying one new at the moment, but perhaps someone could point me in the direction of a place where I might be able to pick up one used. Ballpoint or rollerball preferred (I think his was a ballpoint, it was definitely not a fountain), but I'd also be happy with a fountain pen, even if I'd rarely use it.

It wouldn't exactly be his pen, but it would still remind me of his pen and of him.

Thanks.
